NDAS at Work
NDAS has been supporting victims of domestic abuse for over 40 years and has a wealth of experience in supporting organisations to improve their response to Domestic Abuse.
We know that as an employer, you want to do everything you can to keep your staff healthy, happy and productive. Sadly, we also know that one in four women and one in six men will experience domestic abuse, meaning virtually every employer employs people who are affected.
With a range of courses and workshops, designed specifically from small to large organisations, we can help you to spot the signs in colleagues; anxiety, decreased motivation, seeming distracted, being late, being on the phone to a partner or family member very often.
We can also work with you on developing suitable policies, processes and support options for your workforce. With skilled and experienced advisors, NDAS can ensure that you excel in providing the best possible approaches to supporting your workforce. Domestic abuse is everybody’s business, and this includes employers.
